ChWRoCk2 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) Gee, where to start I can't stand those backpacks/carry-all with rollers on them. I'll be walking to the Union station and its impossible to get around those people and they always walk so f***ing slow. Also hate slow drivers who drive in the right lane. Hate people who have to wait for a big clearing to make a simple right and or left turn. Snoring, so annoying or even loud breathing, makes me paranoid. United Airlines commercials (the storyboard ones) too damn long. MTV, I personally don't want to watch something that's fake. I could care less how Lauren Conrad and or the Hogans are living their lives. I could go on but I'm sure what I'll type is repetitive from earlier posts I have not seen.

maggsmaggs Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 More Gym Hates for Me: --I hate people who on the indoor track at a gym walk in the running lane. Is it that hard to move to the inner lane?!?! --Also, the people who jog real slowly in the running because they thing they are gong fast, just move over to the jogging lane. --People who flex and stare at themselves in the mirrors at the gym in front of everyone --People who still use gay for anything that is stupid (I am not gay, but that just annoys me) --People who walk god ass slow to class with two or three other slow walkers and block me from walking around them --People who don't stop at stop signs in heavily trafficked areas. For me on my bike when I go to and from class, people need to look out for us bikers at stop signs. I could go on and on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) -People who act like idiots when they're around people of the same nationality. For example, there's an Irish bar in Chicago Ridge called Jack Desmonds that I sometimes go to for adult beverages. EVERY TIME I've been in there I've had to deal with drunken micks who act obnoxious, loud, and seem to think because they're parents are off the boat it gives them an excuse to act belligerent. If you're asking yourself, "how do you know who's Irish," that's easy -- they're usually wearing some rugby or soccer jersey from a foreign team, singing a song from the Emerald Isle, and they can't be above 5'9. They're like leprechauns. I'm half Irish and all, but these are the idiots that make me want to vomit with rage. I know SouthSideIrish71 despises these people as well, and if he says it about his own kind then that's all I need to hear. -Anyone using a variation of "should have put a ring on it" to describe someone breaking up. -People who obsess over Boondock Saints, Natural Born Killers, or Scarface (usually the same type of person). All of these movies, in my opinion, appeal to the casual moviegoer seeking flashy action sequences, senseless violence, and "hip" dialogue that you can repeat to your friends. -People who don't know when to stop arguing. I've worked numerous large concerts at Toyota Park and Soldier Field and it's honestly a humbling experience. I understand people pay a large sum of money to enjoy themselves at these events, but arguing with me about the lack of port-o-johns on the bottom floor or the lack of access ramps is useless. I'm not a damn engineer or involved with guest services. And it's usually the same complaints, the same arguments for the entire duration of the concert. I honestly believe when people enter these type of events they feel privileged, and as such, everything must be given to them. They came to have a good time, drink, get in a fight, and no one --especially a lowly security guard -- will stop them. Although, if there's one benefit to working in this environment for three years it's the ability I've developed to deal with difficult people. -Leaving voicemail messages. People have caller Ids and the ability to receive text messages. If it's important I'll call back again or leave a text. -When people go through this whole act of not accepting gifts by suggesting "No I can't accept this," which is replied with, "Yes, I insist." It goes back and forth between gift giver and receiver. Idiot, if the person offered it they want you to have it. Quit trying to act as if you're above receiving something for free.

juddling Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm turning into my father in that the older i get the more and more I hate being in a crowd. Wheather it's a movie theater or the mall or whereever, I don't like it..and I have no patience for long lines. Relating to first point, i can stand these kids (and i mean people up into their late 20's at times) who have to wear the baseball cap backwards or off to the freakin' side. I want to slap it off their heads and tell them that they look like a HUGE douchbag. Though I feel they probably know it. I hate stores like Old Navy and Ambercrombie who have their names on every piece of clothing. It's bad enough you want me to pay your inflated prices but then you expect me to walk around and be a f**kin billboard for you???? Why don't you pay me to advertise your store and maybe we'll see. Also....people who go into the self-checkout line at the store and have no idea how to use it. STOP GETTING IN FRONT OF ME. It shouldn't take you 5 minutes to ring up one gallon of milk and pay for it...and God help me (and them) if they get confused because it's in English. If you can't read the language or speak it...go to a cashier!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The movies tend to follow the same cheesy formula and they're getting old though. That said his TV show is just not funny to me at all, I don't even chuckle when I watch it which is hardly ever (he had to bring in Madea to make it funny which is desperation).

whitesoxfan101 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) As I woke up earlier this morning to get ready for the day, I had on WSCR, and they had Doug Plank on the show. He did something I really hate, talked like a dumb, old meatball. Not to sound like Dan Bernstein here, but Plank was talking about how "the important part of football is being more physical and hitting hard and having a plan to dominate" and that is just so damn stupid. EVERYBODY in football is physical and hits hard and has a plan, teams win and lose games because of talent and not making mistakes. Don't talk to me like I'm stupid Mr. Plank.

lostfan Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm not gay, but for some reason homophobes really irk the hell out of me. First off homosexuality is not contagious, you're not gonna catch the gay by being near a gay person or by touching them, and they're not itching to spread this apparent "horrible disease" to you either. Secondly, just because they're gay and you're of the same gender, odds are they're probably not fantasizing about having sex with you every time they see you. Not any more than straight people would, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
